How to Handle a Woman (From the Broadway Musical, "Camelot") Lyrics

How to handle a woman
There′s a way, said a wise old man
A way, known by every woman
Since the whole rigmarole began

Do I flatter her, I begged him answer?
Do I threaten or cajole or plea?
Do I brood or play the gay romancer?
Said he, smiling, "No, indeed"

"How to handle a woman
Mark me well, I will tell you, sir
The way to handle a woman
Is to love her, simply love her
Merely love her, love her, love her"

The way to handle a woman
Is to love her, simply love her
Merely love her, love her, love her
